Description

Book Synopsis

An authoritative bilingual edition of the great French poet

Paul Valéry was one of the most important poets of the twentieth century. This bilingual volume, which features the English translations facing the French texts, demonstrates the wide range of Valéry's poetry, from lyric masterpieces such as "La Jeune Parque" and "Le Cimetière marin" to occasional and light verse written as letters to friends, dedications in books, and inscriptions on women's fans. It also includes the autobiographical "Recollection," and excerpts on poetry from Valéry's notebooks.

The Collected Works of Paul Valéry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.
